J. B. Watson Ecq., was down
'rora Marienville on a little business
at court, and gave our sauctum a
friendly visit. It is useless to say lie
was in a good bumor over the election
results, as all Andy Jackson Demo
crats should be.
f
There is a furious demand for the
"U. 8. Blue Book," containing a list
of offices under the National adminis
tration, and it would pay big fto get
out an extra edition. Every Demo
crat wants an office, and "be won't be
happy till be gets it."
"MoCrays" is the name of a new
post office in Jeoks township, near
Marienville, so named in honor of our
geuial old friend A. J. McCray. We
bone Jack will be able to hold onto
tbe P. O. notwithstanding the great
Demooratio tidal wave.
The weather ef the past few days
has taken on more of the wintry as
pect t&ao any we bave had yet, and
if the crisp air and snug freezing will
enly linger with us, since it baa come,
till winter has run bis course there'll
be few complaints, we opine.
When tbe roses bloom again the
fur will be flying iu great shape, not
from Republican heads, for they won't
be in it, but among tbe unterrified of
fioe seekers. 'Twill be fun alive to
watcb the scramble, almost enough to
compensate for the late big licking we
got.
Nearly every train up tbe river

"Tipperusalem" City, Ok , is a
compromise name. It was built upon
tbe land of a Hebrew and an Irish
man. The former wanted the city
named Jerusalem ; tbe latter wanted
it named Tipperary. Neither would
give way to the other, and Tipperusa
lem is tbe result.
It is announced tbat the only re
duction on passenger rates to Chicago
during tbe World's Fair will be 25
per cent, on tbe slow trains. Tbat is
hardly fair, but let us wait and see.
There may be such conoipetiiion as
will cut tbe rates down to a reasonable
fare, and everybody can go to tbe fair.

Our young friend, Theo. Riddle,
who was called hither by tbe serious
illness of his mother, gave us a pleas
ant call Monday. Since his last visit
to his old borne here, be has been mar
ried and now two little Riddles have
come to blets bis borne, which is now
at North Clarendon, where be holds a
nice position with the South Peno Oil
Co.
Will Walters, came borne from
Geneva, lodiaua, last week, where he
has been with the Hardison colony en
gaged iu oil well drilling, nursing a
very badly used-up left hand. He got
it too near the engine gearing somehow
or another, and bad two fingers brok
so aod badly mangled. Billy reports
tbe balance of tbe boys from this sec
tion in good health aud spirits.
We are not alarmists. Far from
it. But when we consider tbe relig
ious secrecy which has applied for gen
erations to (be executive sessions of tbe
United States Senate, we experience a
degree of alarm in contemplating tbe
sealing of Mrs. Lease in tbat dignified
body. Are all our sacred institutions,
along with the tariff, to be tbus swiped
out at one fell swoop f Blizzard.
Now tbat the smoke of tbe politi
cal battle is clearing away the Frank
lin News wants the people to turo
their attention for a short time to the
new comet, which may be seen in tbe
heavens, almost directly overhead, at
10 p. tu. A field or opera glass en
ables a person to pick it out with ease.
It is thought it will show np as big as
a cartwheel before tbe end of tbe
month.
Tbe bottoms are gradually fall
ing out of the roads, aod if the present
weather continues for a week or two
they will undoubtedly be down to bed
rock, and tbe good citizen will endeav
or to convince bis neighbor tbat we
are sadly in need of a better method
of construction highways. But tbe
spring time will roll around, the blue
birds will sing, old Sol will beam forth
in all his glory, tbe roads will dry up
aod get smooth, and all our misery
will be forgotteu uotil auother season
of wet and mud arrives, says the Clar
ion Republican. And so it goes the
ytsr 'round, and ifce world over.
About two weeks ago Mrs. James
Woodington, who has for a white back
been with her daughter, Mrs. Will
Clark, on HunterJ Run, was stricken
with paralysis, since which she has
been in a critical state. On Saturday
last ber lite was despaired of, but on
Monday she rallied agaio, and at this
writing tbe friends have hopes of her
recovery. Two of her sons, Samuel
and Theodore Riddle, bave been with

The Tidioute Neu$ says: Tbe
contested suit over tho Webb lot lease
between the Forest Gas Co. and the
Citizen Gas Co. is ended. Originally
it was argued before tbe U. 8. Court
at Erie and decided in favor of the
Citizeo's Company. A new trial was
denied, and tbe case was; eajried to the
U. 8. Supreme Court before whom it
was argued in September. On
Wednesday word was received by
Seo'y Shaw that the decision of the
lower court bad been affirmed. Tbis
will give tbe Citizen's Company porses
sion of tbe lease. Tbe question of
damages will probably be next io or
der. Something occurred during the
services at the M. E. church last (Bun
day night that probably never occurred
there before. A stranger came in aod
took a seat pretty well up front in a
pew of a family who were regular at
tendants at tbe church. After the
collection was lifted, which was taken
up before Rev. McDonald began bis
sermon, tbe stranger deliberately took
off his shoes aod placed them at his
side. He bad no stockiogs on aod the
other ocoupaots of the seat, besides
many others in the adjoining pews,
kuew that some onr had taken off his
shoes without even seeing tbe act per
formed. Punx. Newt.

The lleniestead Strike Upclarfd off
The Carnegie mills at Homestead
were formally declared open by the
Amalgamated Association Suoday,
and the greatest strike of modem
limes was ended. This strike lasted
20 weeks. It cost, directly and indi
rectly, a score of lives and millions of
dollars. During tbe past week there
had been many breaks in tbe ranks of
the locked-out meo. These had be
come so serious that tbe greater part
of the ineo had applied for their old
positions and were anxious and willing
to return to work at once. Several
closed meetings of tbe Amalgated As
sociatiou lodges bad been held last week,
and before adjourning Saturday night
another conference was arranged for
Sunday morning at 10 o'clock. Tbe
men were instructed t come prepared
to take decisive action. Wbeo tbe
motion was put, whether tbe strike be
continued or tbe mills be declared
opon so all who could get their old
positions could take them without in
terference from the association, the
question was soou decided. The mo
lion to call off tbe strike aod declare
the mills open was carried, 101 to 94.
This was sufficient and tbe will of tbe
majority ruled. A few speeches defin
ing the attitude of the association
toward tbe men were made by tbe offi
cials aud the meeting adjourned sine
die. The men hurried to their homes
aud little was seen of tbem about the
town during the afternoon.
The more conservative men of Home
stead wete Dot surprised at the action
taken yesterday by the Association.
The breaks of last week left little else
to be done. Every one without excep
tion, expressed himself as pleased tbat
the end had come and that Homestead
could once more settle down to its
wonted business activity. Affairs of all
kinds in tbe town have been paralyzed
since the strike began and tbe change
is heartily bailed by the business men
The workmen seemed to think tbat all,
with the exception of those blacklisted,
would be ultimately given positions,
though they thought many would have
to wail some time. A feeling of assur
ance was everywhere apparent in
Homestead Monday and more satis
faction was expressed than on aoy day
since tbe strike was inaugurated.
Critcblow on Trial for Murder.
The celebrated Homestead murder
cases were begun in tbe Allegheny
county courts last Friday, the first de
fendant put on trial for his life being
Sylvester Critcblow, who is charged
with murder as one of the men who
fired on the barges which carried the
Pinkerton detectives to Homestead on
the fatal morniog of July 6th, last.
Tbe court cootiuued in session last
Saturday night until 10 o'clock, when
the prosecution rested. The opening
of the defence began on Monday.
The most important witness exam
ined Saturday was Samuel Stewart, a
clerk for tbe Carnegie Steel Company.
He taw Critcblow firing into the
barges, taking aim as he did so. Stew
art was the only witness who saw this,
and his evidence is the most damaging
that has been given against tbe pris
oner. Captain Cooper's cross-examina
tion was a severe one, but he was not
tripped up by it. W. II. Burt, a Pink
erton detective, who was a school-mate
of D. F. Patterson, one of the attor
neyi for the prosecution, gave evi
dence corroborative of tbat given by
captain Cooper on Friday. Charles
Reese, a newspaper arti6t, identified
Critcblow as a man be saw behind the
barricade with a gun. He denied tbat
be was on the Frick pay roll. A
number of Homestead men employed
in the Caroegie offices identified Critcb
low, as a man they bad seen going
towards the scene of the fight carrying
a gun. It is only a matter of conjuc
ture as to the duratiou of the trial,
but it will likely last two or three
more days. Judge Kenuedy is push
iog it as fast as possible, by holding
the attorneys withiu tbe case and keep
ing out irrelevant matter. He bad
several tilts with them ou Saturday.
Tbe convicliou or acquittal of the
others Will binge largely oo tho out
come of this case, aud its progress is
watched with tbe greatest ioterest.
Monday's developemeols io the case
would seem to indicate a etroug prob
ability tbat the accused will be acquitt
ed by proving au alibi. He is endeavor
ing to show tbat the witnesses for tbe
commonwealth who identified him so
positively got him mixed up with bis
cousiu Harrison Critcblow, aod thai
at tbe time wben be was said to bave
been behind the barricade and also on
the barges, he was at least a mile away
aod had not beeo nearer to the figbt
all day than the Muohall road, alleast
a quarter of a mile from the battle
Geld. Witnesses swore to this yester
day and the commonwealth could not
shake their testimony. The case will
likely be given to the jury to-day.
The Tionesta photograph gallery
will be open only ou Wednesdays un
til further notice. Oo these days Mr.
Sires will give his persooal attention
to (he work aod make the sittings
himself. No better guarantee of sat
isfaction could be seted. 2t

ward Parr, who died about three weeks
ago. Mrs. Carr testifies that Yeager threw
ber husband down and kicked him on the
cbest. It is charged tbat Carr's death was
mainly attributable to tne injuries re
ceived iu the altercation witb Yeager,
wbicb tbe latter denies, and expects com
plete vindication.
The human stomach possesses most
wonderful powers of adaption to circum
stances. When Lieut. Bligb and his eigh
teen men were cast off from the Bounty
by the mutineers iu an open boat they
subsisted 41 days ou an allowance of one
twenty-fifth of a pound of biscuit per mau
and a quarter of a pint of water. Dr. Tan
ner in 1880 fasted for forty days, sub
sisting, it is said, ou water alone, and
Succi aud other fasting men have since ex
celled tbis. Kaffirs, North American In
dians and tbe "fat boy" in "Pickwick"
may well be quoted as fearful examples of
voracity, but even their gastronomic feats
are exceeded by the full grown Eskimo,
who will daily eat twenty pounds of flesh
and oil If he has tho chance, while, on the
authority of Admiral Saritcheil', a Yakut
of Siberia baa been known to consume in
24 hours "the hind quarter of a large ox,
twenty pounds of fat and a quautity of
melted butter for his drink."
In bis annual address General Muster
Workman Powderly gives it as his opin
ion tbat all local Assemblies of the Knights
of Labor should be made up of a mixed
membership. He advocates centralization
an organization in which every interest
may be cared for. He commends the se
cret ballot and thinks laws should be en
acted to rendei it impossible for any per
son to vote unless he can read his ballot;
be favors tbe restriction of immigration
and would exclude all immigrants who
are not aelf-austaiuing on landing; he
would fix a term of six years during
wbicb time no immigrant should be per
mitted to land, with a view of remaiuing,
unless he could prove that he had suffi
cient means to sustain himself and thoe
dependent on him for one year. He de
clared tbat there is moro revenue illegally
drawn from tbe pockets of merchants,
manufactures and workmen iu one month
of the year by the railroads and telegraphs
than we pay in tariffs for a year. Said be :
"We must be politicians or tbe slaves of
politicians. Iu a word we inuat be law
makers or law breakers. When we, in
the last extremity, are driven close to
tbe wall aud deprived of right and
privilege, it is done through tho law. If
the law is obscure or defective, a hareling
judge can alwaya be fouud to construe in
favor of the walthy against the poor. If
every citizen of Pennsylvania understood
and knew his rights, if be iwrformed bis
duty under tbe law intelligently aud as he
ought to, no judge would dare U charge
treason against workmen who but strug
gled for recognition."
